Custom details—like rugs—set our designs apart.

A home contains much more than its windows to the world around it. Custom Drapery Designs goes inside the window coverings to highlight all the details and depth a room’s design holds. This often takes our focus to the floors with exquisite custom rugs.

Davis and Davis creates custom rugs in Chattanooga.

We chose to highlight certain colors in this room through its draperies, furniture fabrics and rug. Stephanie Freeman, CDD’s senior design consultant, hand-picked the colors in this rug to match the custom furniture. She began with a black and white design, selecting colors from the wool samples we have in the office.

Davis and Davis Rugs, Inc., then sent a paper version of how the completed rug would look. After the paper version received the thumbs up, Davis and Davis sent a strike off (or corner sample)—a miniature of what the real rug would look like—for a final approval.

As you can see, the finished product pairs perfectly with the lavender velvet from Robert Allen on the sofa and the textured gray velvets from Fabricut and Lee Jofa on the chairs. The completed design allows the lavender to really pop, tying in with the draperies as well.

Davis and Davis, part of the Miller Davis Group in Chattanooga, Tenn., manufactures 100% New Zealand wool rugs and carpeting. From wool dyeing to production to trimming and backing to quality inspections and finishing touches, Davis and Davis takes a rug from concept to reality in house. You can see the whole fascinating process in this video.

Delos delivers custom rugs with style.

CDD has spent a lot of time recently on a whole house redesign for a client. We can’t wait to show off the finished product either!

In this room, Stephanie chose the colors and modern design of the custom rug. She received two different strike offs from Delos, another American rug company headquartered in the South. She worked with the client to choose the perfect option for this living room. As you can see these colors paired flawlessly with the upholstery and pillow fabrics. The rug draws the eye in to the room and allows each color to make its own statement.

Delos produces American Made rugs which showcase how today’s technology makes products as close to handmade as possible. They also offer clients rugs with a variety of textures, including shags and loops.

In addition, they have four hand-crafted options—Hand Knotted, Hand Tufted, Microloop and Soumak. Each Delos Journey Made option includes wool blends and spun bamboo accents, and several have a silk option instead.

Well-made rugs from quality companies give a custom appearance.

We don’t always have to design a custom rug when some of our favorite rug companies produce such vibrant colors. In this elegant dining room, we chose a bright Surya rug. It adds depth and warmth without changing the opulent design feel.

Surya satisfies us every time with their high quality, stunning designs and immaculate craftsmanship. Check out this blog post for more details about the hand-knotted rugs Surya produces.
